  • Chattel paper: means a record that evidences both a monetary obligation and a security interest in specific goods, a security interest in specific goods and software used in the goods, a security interest in specific goods and license of software used in the goods, a lease of specific goods, or a lease of specific goods and license of software used in the goods. See Ohio Code 1309.102
  • Collateral: means the property subject to a security interest or agricultural lien, including:

    (a) Proceeds to which a security interest attaches;

    (b) Accounts, chattel paper, payment intangibles, and promissory notes that have been sold; and

    (c) Goods that are the subject of a consignment. See Ohio Code 1309.102

  • Debtor: means :

    (a) A person having an interest, other than a security interest or other lien, in the collateral, whether or not the person is an obligor;

    (b) A seller of accounts, chattel paper, payment intangibles, or promissory notes; or

    (c) A consignee. See Ohio Code 1309.102

  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
